Reviews

This text is a model of Janice Nathan's own inner speech - how she integrates background research with her clinical experience to develop thinking and problem-solving skills in the modalities of spoken and written language with verbal children and adults with ASD. It is a valuable resource for any speech-language pathologist working with this population. -- Diane L. Williams, Ph.D.CCC-SLP, author of 'Developmental Language Disorders: Language, Learning, and the Brain'
